So… how does it work when you’ve got TWO different Staples offers going on at the same time? If I use one of my cards that has the Staples/Home Depot offer loaded to buy $250 worth of stuff at Home Depot, do I get BOTH $75 AND $20 back???

You should get both; they are different offers with different terms. Test it and tell us what happens.

I can report that I got two Congrats! emails. BTW, I should have said bought $250 worth of stuff at STAPLES not Home Depot.

I’m going to going to go the simple and easy route. Two $200 Visa or MasterCard GCs on one transaction split between 4 Amex cards and then cash them out with money orders. After fees I’m looking at a profit of $65.10 per transaction that way. You’ve got to love having lots of AU cards and Serves. I should clear almost $1k plus points off this one. 🙂

Mike,

I have a question cuz I’m not too familiar with Staples. Are you talking about online order or in-store? (Do they allow you to split to 4 cards online?)

How are you splitting the transaction between 4 cards? Are you doing this in store, because I see nowhere on the website to divide the transaction.

I’m probably not as experienced at this game as others, but if you have 4 Amex cards @ $20/per – doesn’t that equal $80 (less when deducting for fees), not $1K?

I am probably missing something here in the analysis,- are you adding in the value of the Amex Membership Rewards?

He has more than 4 cards, more to the 60+ Amex cards. DOC, you’re the MAN. I just sync my 40+ cards to this offer. Thanks.

Yea, thanks for killing this one for us normal people. 40 cards is just stupid. 6am and it’s already dead, because of the robo-syncers.

You are awesome!! I am so glad I checked before I went to bed. After missing out on the officedepot deal this morning (I am on pacific time and it ended so quickly) I thought I should check late at night to see if any new deals came out.

If I lived in Pacific time I don’t think I would have missed any of these deals. Unlike sports it seems that these deals are “West Coast biased”.

D*MN, finally went through the miserable trouble of signing up for a new twitter account (which required a new email account too), then figured out how to “tweet” for this offer — only to get this:

Sorry, max # of Card Members have enrolled in #AmexStaples offer.

I hate (sic) twitter crap.

BUT, lesson learned again, check with doctor of credit long before dawn each day. 🙂

These “offers” are getting to be a joke. You have to get in in the first 10 minutes of the offer or you’re out. Getting to be a joke.

You can buy stamps at Office Depot — not a moneymaker, but the could have saved you money (assuming you use regular mail).

Office depot was almost the same deal. $10 off $50 is equal percentage wise to $20 off of $100.

This didn’t seem to make it on to the Amex Offers website. How did anyone find out this existed? And yes, bummer that I missed out, but I sleep 2 to 4 AM 🙂

This did make it on the Amex Offers online. I signed up for it on every single card via Amex.com. I just happened to check DOC before I went to bed and saw this post and right after I added the last card around 2:40AM CST, the deal was dead.
